Magehound (Counselors & Kings book 1) By Elaine Cunningham Read this book if: You’re a fan of the Forgotten Realms and you want a political/magic thriller set in a lesser explored corner of the realms. #booksky #fantasybooks #bookreview #forgottenrealms #sffbooks

Writing Tip: I can never post enough about the rule of three. Want readers to remember an important detail? Mention it at least three times. Three is the magic number. Any less and it can be immediately dropped and forgotten. Three is the key. #writing #writingtips #Booksky

The master of marionettes vitalizes inert stuff with the dynamics of his self. The sticks dance, make love, pretend to speak, and […] offer their brief imitations of men and women with an exquisite precision which is all the more disturbing because we know it to be false ▫️Angela Carter, 1974 📚💙 📚🖋

Writing Tip: It's fun to have secrets in your story. It's fun to tease them to your reader. It's not fun to tease them forever. Eventually you have to let your reader in on the fun. Otherwise they're going to stop caring about that big dramatic reveal you have planned. #writing #writingtips #Booksky

Writing Tip: Characters need time to acclimatize to other characters. It feels weird when two people instantly click and become buddies after literally a few seconds of conversation. It takes more than that to develop a good relationship. #writing #writingtips #Booksky
